REES RETURNS FOR FINAL

Posted: Mon 07 Aug 2000

A fully fit Tony Rees, returns to Australia this weekend to contest the FINAL round of the Australian Formula Xtreme Series at Oran Park on Sunday.

The Kawerau rider put in some valuable laps at Oran Park in mid-July, as practice for this last round. Since coming home from Lakeside, the worst for wear with the flu; Rees has been training hard for the final showdown with the extremely quick Team Radar Yamahas.

“We are going with a positive attitude and if things go right, it could easily turn into our weekend” says REES.
